Companies in this sector face financial challenges such as managing capital and income tax. Corporate income tax can affect overall financial performance. Governments depend on corporate income taxes to fund public goods. It is important for businesses and policymakers to understand what factors affect the amount of corporate taxes owed. Capital structure, profitability, and operational costs can impact tax liabilities and the financial stability of firms in competitive markets. The main goal of this study is to analyze the impact of capital structure, profitability, and operational costs on the level of corporate income tax payable. A quantitative approach is utilized, with information gathered from businesses listed on the ASEAN stock exchanges over a five-year period. The sample selection process involved purposive sampling, resulting in the inclusion of 50 companies and 250 data sets.
